Unemployment
YOU MIGHT BE ASKING YOURSELF
Why me?
Given the importance work plays in most peoples’ lives, being unemployed may leave
you with feelings of rejection, loneliness, depression, and even anger toward yourself
and your loved ones. Your feelings of anxiety about bills and your family’s future are a
natural reaction to the stress you are under right now. During this time, it is important to
remember that you are not alone - most people who lose their jobs share your feelings.
How will my family be affected?
One of the most important things you can do to ease the strain of unemployment is to
share your feelings honestly and openly with your family. Your spouse and children are
affected by your situation as much as you are, and good communication with family
members and close friends is vital. You need the emotional support now. Talking
together about the problems you face is essential to help you feel less isolated as you
plan your next steps.

Unemployment
Right Now…
What can I do while waiting to return to work?
If you’ve been laid off from your job temporarily, keep yourself occupied:
* Catch up on the household chore list *
* Visit family and friends *
* Take advantage of free or low cost activities in our area *
* Volunteer your time to help those in need.*
WHAT IF MY JOB IS GONE FOR GOOD?
Begin by making realistic plans:
 Explore where you want to go and what you want to do. This may be your opportunity to
shift into a type of work you’ve always wanted to do.
 Consider your assets and liabilities, and set a goal. If you need help figuring this out, it’s
available.
 If you need more job training, make contacts to get that training.
 Decide where you want to look for a job and plan a step-by-step approach to achieve
your objective. Your plan should be action oriented, personal, and geared toward your
needs, wants, and attributes.
 Remember, finding a job is a full time job.
WHAT KIND OF HELP CAN I GET NOW?
During a period of joblessness, savings can be depleted very quickly. Even
the cost of basic necessities like food, housing, clothing, utilities, and medical
care can become a serious burden. There are some government benefits
which you may be entitled to - food stamps (bridge card), public assistance,
medical assistance, and emergency assistance programs providing food and
help with utility payments.
Not every agency or service can be included in this Resource Guide so if you
have additional questions please call 423-1729.

Unemployment
THERE IS NO EASY ANSWER
Finding a new job or returning to your old job maybe your ultimate goal, but there are many
ways you can ease the financial and emotional strain you are feeling right now:







Talk about your problems with someone close to you.
Take some time to relax.
Work off your anger, frustration, and anxiety through exercise or some other constructive
activity.
Do something for others.
Find out about community resources that are available.
Don’t try to solve all your problems at once. What do you need most right now?
Seek help before your problems become unmanageable. There are agencies to help you.

State of Michigan Resources
Helping Hand, is a streamlined state Web site that will help the unemployed and others
enduring economic hardship to easily find programs and services that may assist
them. People will see five color tabs labeled jobs and training, unemployment benefits,
health care, family support, and housing. By clicking on those five tabs, people will find
links to programs and services for their particular areas of need. Through Helping
Hand, people for the first time will be able to apply for food assistance online, without
first visiting their local Department of Human Services.
